Last week I received the most awesome blog love EVER from Ellen Gregory. She presented me with the  auspicious Liebster Blog Award. I am truly honored. *blushes* Thank you, Ellen!

I learned of this age-old tradition from the wise and awesomely literary Mike Schulenberg…

According to legends that come to us from antiquity, the Liebster is meant for blogs that motivate, inspire, and have 200 followers or less. Its apparent purpose is to summon new followers like some sort of mystical talisman, increasing the power of those of us who are just beginning. — Mike Schulenberg

And now it’s my turn to pass on this honor of great good fortune, continuing the tradition of spreading the Liebster Love!

The Liebster Blog rules:

1. Thank the person who nominated you on your blog and link back to them.
2. Nominate up to 5 others for the award.
